jesus, alias has reached a new low.
on tonight's episode the CIA needed to find someone but wasn't having any luck. however they did have a brainwave scan spit out by a wooden box (don't ask). no sooner than i asked myself "how the crap can you find someone using only a brainwave scan" did someone invent "remote encephalography." yeah, remotely reading someone's brainwaves. how remotely? from space.
seems the DoD had a project that built a satellite network for situations just like these, and by the time sloan had finished explaining the theory to sydney they'd already pinpointed the location. and by pinpointed i mean in chechnya, in a labor camp, under an alias, and in sector C. damn, that was fast.
ha. big freakin' ha.

hmm, i seem to remember my boss talking about something similar to this that he saw at a DARPA convention in January. of course the real version relied on a laser and line-of-sight, but whatever. tim on 2004.04.26 @ 7:57 AMduring the first season (which jess and i are watching right now on dvd), there was a moment when marshall came up with some super-duper device, but because sloan didn't want to hear the crazy convoluted explanation of how he did it, he just asked what he did. which gave us a fancy new marshall-made device with no explanation whatsoever. brilliant. and that andrew is your answer. if you had marshall hanging out in your apartment, you could probably track chechnyan brainwaves too. joe on 2004.04.27 @ 12:26 PM |
